The Winnowing

We are having terrorist attacks in the first world happen with increasing regularity. America is facing one of it’s most divisive elections in recent memory as well as potentially heading towards a race war. Britain has voted to leave the EU. The EU is struggling under the weight of unsustainable welfare/economic models and trying to cope with asylum seekers and immigration. The South China Sea is heating up as China moves to stake its claims. Turkey is becoming increasingly hardline islamist after a half-baked coup. The Syrian civil war carries on.

You only need to be vaguely aware of the news to know that the whole post-Cold war Idea of Pax Americana didn’t really happen. While I am not the kind to delve into pessimist porn and extrapolate all kinds of wild scenarios on how modern civillisation is going to collapse, recent events indicate that there is a potential for another great winnowing to happen.

The comfort of technological civillisation has led to anticompetitive ideologies taking root as the dominant societal narratives of the First World. Such ideologies have set up an conducive environment for Rabbit people and their behaviours to propagate while they systemically cull the Wolf instincts within their population. Modern civillisation has provided a bountiful field of grass for the Rabbit, it makes less sense to be a Wolf.

The Rabbit Progressives have a fatalist perspective of human history- they think that all cultures, events and history will inevitability end up with everybody as latte liberals living in first-world standards of life holding progressive ideology. What these insulated Rabbits aren’t aware of is that the bounty and safety that modern civillisation provides them is not infinite, neither does it require no effort to sustain.

But while they are unaware, they will steadily work at chipping away at the Wolf instincts that has allowed their own civillisation to rise to ascendancy, seeing all the ugly parts of their history such as masculinity, traditional gender roles, the need to be competitive, loyal to the in-group, carefully regulating social standards on reproduction and all that as unnecessary. Progressives need something to alter and change, actually creating new things is too difficult.

They don’t realise how fast the winnowing will come, and how ill-equipped they are to handle it.

Will people who make a virtue of weakness as a forte, turning boys in girls, and neutering their own population with dysfunctional reproductive practices really be able to stand up when the Wolves from rival cultures finally knock upon their door? All they have known is how to exploit the system their ancestors have won through sweat and blood for maximum personal gain. They will not survive.

When the winnowing comes it will be fast, it will be sudden, and it will be terrible.

And the Rabbits will have nowhere to go.

The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout “Save us!”… and I’ll look down and whisper “No.”-Rorschach
